Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of designing a cost-efficient network that survives the failure of one or more nodes or edges of the network is critical to modern telecommunications engineering. The method developed in this book is designed to solve such problems to optimality. In particular, a cutting plane approach is described, based on polyhedral combinatorics, that is ableto solve real-world problems of this type in short computation time. These results are of interest for practitioners in the area of communication network design. The book is addressed especially to the combinatorial optimization community, but also to those who want to learn polyhedral methods. In addition, interesting new research problemsare formulated.

Download or read book Design of Survivable Networks with Bounded Rings written by B. Fortz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2000-10-31 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the problem of designing, at minimal cost, a two-connected network such that each edge belongs to a cycle of bounded length. This problem arises in the long-term planning of telecommunications networks. The book provides an in-depth study of the underlying polyhedron, proposing several classes of facet-defining inequalities that are used in a branch-and-cut algorithm. Several heuristics are also proposed in order to solve real-world instances of the problem, and extensive numerical results are reported. The polyhedral analysis is done in the best mathematical programming tradition. Results obtained here demonstrate how to use polyhedral theory for practical network design problems, and are therefore of interest for mathematical programming practitioners as an application of classical theoretical concepts. Moreover, telecommunications specialists can find practical solutions to real-world problems, as several heuristics are proposed that can be easily extended to related problems. Audience: Operations research and mathematical programming researchers, and telecommunications specialists.

This book was released on 2013-11-22 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These days, the nature of services and the volume of demand in the telecommu nication industry is changing radically, with the replacement of analog transmis sion and traditional copper cables by digital technology and fiber optic transmis sion equipment. Moreover, we see an increasing competition among providers of telecommunication services, and the development of a broad range of new services for users, combining voice, data, graphics and video. Telecommunication network planning has thus become an important problem area for developing and applying optimization models. Telephone companies have initiated extensive modeling and planning efforts to expand and upgrade their transmission facilities, which are, for most national telecommunication networks, divided in three main levels (see Balakrishnan et al. [5]), namely, l. the long-distance or backbone network that typically connects city pairs through gateway nodes; 2. the inter-office or switching center network within each city, that interconnects switching centers in different subdivisions (clusters of customers) and provides access to the gateway(s) node(s); 1 2 DESIGN OF SURVNABLE NETWORKS WITH BOUNDED RINGS 3. the local access network that connects individual subscribers belonging to a cluster to the corresponding switching center. These three levels differ in several ways including their design criteria. Ideally, the design of a telecommunication network should simultaneously account for these three levels. However, to simplify the planning task, the overall planning problem is decomposed by considering each level separately.
Download or read book Survivable Network Design Problems with High Connectivity Requirement written by Ibrahima Diarrassouba and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Network survivability is one of the key issue when designing a network. It has a crucial importance, especially for telecommunication networks, since a very large part of the economical activities uses telecommunication infrastructures. The aim of network engineers is hence to ensure both survivability, by satisfying some connectivity requirements, and quality of service (QoS). In this book, we propose a mathematical analysis of the problem of designing a minimum cost survivable and QoS-constrained network, where a high level of connectivity is required and QoS is guarantied by limiting the number of hop in each traffic path. We present Linear Programming models for the problem in different cases and investigate their polyhedral structure. All along this book, we address both theoretical and algorithmic aspects of the different cases we study, and develop efficient and exact algorithms to solve this network design problem. This book should be useful to practioners in telecommunications and network engineering, and to researchers and students who are interested in studying network design problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of survivability introduced as a network parameter has led to so many investigations. Several measures of survivability has been studied. The number of links and/or stations needed to be damaged to disrupt the system is the survivability criterion adapted in the study. The development of analysis procedures for directed, undirected, or mixed networks based on the above criterion and use of the concepts in network flow and graph theory are treated in detail including computer program implementation of the algorithms. Finally a practical design algorithm for minimum-cost survivable network with respect to branch disconnection using a heuristic approach and analysis techniques is described. (Author).

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planning and Architectural Design of Integrated Services Digital Networks: Civil and Military Applications provides a comprehensive treatment of ISDNs: how to plan and design them architecturally and how to implement them so that they meet certain given user requirements ranging from a variety of service demands to transmission performance, security, reliability/availability, capability for growth, interoperability with other ISDN and non-ISDN networks and, of course, cost. The book concentrates on the application of ISDN concepts and standards to the planning and design of real costed networks to meet certain specified user requirements. Where there are multiple options, considerations and rationale on the choice of network aspects and standards are discussed. The unique feature of the book, compared with other books on ISDN, is that it expounds an original methodology which starts from an assumed or given set of complete user requirements and proceeds to designing a complete network taking into account the technology and standards of ISDN, as well as some constraints including cost which may be imposed. Planning and Architectural Design of Integrated Services Digital Networks describes computer-aided design tools employed for dimensioning the network for various traffic loads and for assessing its traffic carrying performance for assessing different precedence categories and network configurations, transmission conditions and routing algorithms which may be static-deterministic or dynamic-adaptive. Aspects such as surveillance and control, security, survivability and EMP protection are also addressed. Planning and Architectural Design of Integrated Services Digital Networks: Civil and Military Applications is an excellent reference source and may be used as a text for advanced courses on the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-volume set on Mathematical Principles of the Internet provides a comprehensive overview of the mathematical principles of Internet engineering. The books do not aim to provide all of the mathematical foundations upon which the Internet is based. Instead, these cover only a partial panorama and the key principles. Volume 1 explores Internet engineering, while the supporting mathematics is covered in Volume 2. The chapters on mathematics complement those on the engineering episodes, and an effort has been made to make this work succinct, yet self-contained. Elements of information theory, algebraic coding theory, cryptography, Internet traffic, dynamics and control of Internet congestion, and queueing theory are discussed. In addition, stochastic networks, graph-theoretic algorithms, application of game theory to the Internet, Internet economics, data mining and knowledge discovery, and quantum computation, communication, and cryptography are also discussed. In order to study the structure and function of the Internet, only a basic knowledge of number theory, abstract algebra, matrices and determinants, graph theory, geometry, analysis, optimization theory, probability theory, and stochastic processes, is required. These mathematical disciplines are defined and developed in the books to the extent that is needed to develop and justify their application to Internet engineering.
